Anyone know how to code a proxy template?

[cpufreak3]

I've created a proxy template and would like to code it myself using PHProxy. I have some experience in coding, so I'd like to do it myself.

Does anyone have a guide or know how to do this? Thanks

What kind of coding experience do you have? This could be obvious, but the first step is to slice the template and then usually with new scripts I am not used to I will take a look at someone else's work or the script itself to see how to integrate my sliced template images.

Yeah, I know how to slice a template, but I'm not exactly sure what code goes where? I know complete HTML and basic PHP. However, I do most of my work in dreamweaver (usually building content sites). For instance, how do I implement the proxy submit part into my template? PHProxy comes with a default template, but I'm not too sure what's going on. Looking at other templates, people have definitely figured out how to make custom templates, but I don't know if they built it around PHProxy, or added PHProxy into it.

If you could help me out, that would be great. Thanks

Wow sorry for the long delay.

I've implemented many templates into many different scripts. I usually start out by coding up the template I made in html just to see how everything works. I then take a look at the code of an existing template, and pick out the things that I need to keep. For example the text input and submit button as well as any php code. If there isn't much from the script I need to keep, I might just add it to the basic html template of mine that I already coded. On the other hand, if there is a lot from the script that I need to keep I will have to work around it and try to piece in all of the template files.

I'm going to have to say that dreamweaver wouldn't be a good idea when trying to merge a template with a script. You are going to need to look at the code itself to see what's going on. It shouldn't be that big of a deal if you know html and basic php. Just steer clear of the php and try to work around it.

I hope this helps. I wish I had a little more experience with phproxy so I could be of more help.
